Högbakken - Norwegian Family Farm

My Norwegian great-grandfather was born on the farm Högbakken in 1852.

 

My Norwegian cousin Villy Börresen now owns the farm. It is near the town of Skotterud.

 

The photo was taken during my first visit to Norway in 2000.

 

My cousin, Villy, in the farm house. He grew up in this house.

 

During World War II, German soldiers were stationed in the house with them because it was near the Swedish border.
